Nissan Sentra 1983 Antique on 2040-cars
Flat Rock, Alabama, United States
I am the sole owner since I bought it newly manufactured in 1983. it did not have a factory installed air conditioner so when I bought it I had them add an air conditioner. over the years it failed 2 or 3 times and I had it fixed but I stopped fixing it. I assume all the old parts of that are still there. it has never been in a major wreck. the only minor wreck I remember is when someone hit my car in a parking lot when I wasn't there. there was a big dent in the panel back left from the drivers side. I think the panel was replaced. about 5 years after I bought it the front axle melted and Nissan paid to replace it. I guess it didn't get greased although I took it in to the dealer for its post buy maintenance. the clutch has been replaced a few times, I ride it I suppose. I replaced the entire engine at around 79000 miles. sorry, I don't remember the exact mileage, don't have any record. point being the overall car has 193k on it but the engine doesn't. tires have a lot of tread left on them (see pictures). the last maintenance activity I did back in 09 when I stopped using it was for the brake pads and discs to be replaced so they should be good for another 20k. I find I prefer to try to sell it to someone who'll keep it, refurbish it, rather than just junk it. it's a trooper, it's hauled me around for over 25 years. in this state that makes it an antique, you can get an antique plate for it and drive it around in those antique car rallies (I think. as far as I know). it has a manual transmission and it is small and maneuverable. in my opinion it's more fun to drive than a car with an automatic transmission. there are some small dings on the outside in additions to the paint being off but nothing I would call a 'dent'. I used to smoke cigarettes but I didn't for that last 10+ years I had it. I had a temporary contract up in Minnesota for 9 months. I used this car then and I had it proofed against snow-salt. i.e. many of the interior vacancies inside the body were squirted full of some substance to stop rust and a paint-on/spray-on treatment was given to the undercarriage to resist salt. As far as I know it doesn't have any salt damage. the old highway mileage for this car used to be 50-55 but that anti-salt treatment lowered that I'm sure. as did age. I have a replacement certificate of title which applies to the car now. I had the original title and I bet I still DO have it but I can't find it. a couple years ago I decided to sell and had to get my title reissued but wound up not selling. I bought this vehicle with cash and there were Never any liens or debts or what-have-you on it. I also have 1 of the original keys which i found a couple days ago...and promptly lost again. I got summoned for jury duty and I wound up shuffling a lot of objects around before I went in. that key got lost in the move-it-all activity. if I can find that key before pickup you can have it of course. I have 2 copy keys which work. You pay for any shipping expenses although I assume it'll be someone local who shows up to get it. The jump-start battery I used to test whether it would crank is not part of the sale. If you're local and want to drive it away, bring your own charged battery of the right type and size. Please bid only if you really will buy. Thank you. |

Auto industry insider previews tell-all book, What Did Jesus Drive?
Tue, 11 Nov 2014
"It's about some of the biggest crises in history. It's about who did it right and who did it wrong." - Jason Vines
Jason Vines, the former head of public relations at Chrysler, Ford and Nissan, has seen a lot during his more than 30-year career, and now he's offering a behind-the-scenes look at the auto industry in his tell-all book What Did Jesus Drive? that went on sale this month.
Renault and Nissan forge deeper alliance
Tue, 18 Mar 2014If the automotive industry's current era could be summarized by one trend - from a corporate aspect, anyway - surely it would be conglomeration. But of all the major auto groups that have emerged over the past several years, none have kept themselves at arm's length quite like the Renault-Nissan Alliance.
Much like Fiat and Chrysler, Renault and Nissan are presided over by a common chief executive. But whereas Sergio Marchionne's Italian-American alliance has moved swiftly from a transatlantic partnership to a merged company in the span of less than five years, Carlos Ghosn's Franco-Japanese alliance has stood oceans apart since 1999. But now the Renault-Nissan Alliance is following the lead set by Fiat Chrysler Automobiles in bridging that distance through several key measures.
For one, Renault and Nissan will make increased use of common platforms, R&D, systems and testing. The two automakers will also cooperate more closely on manufacturing and supply chain management, purchasing and human resources. To manage the increased cooperation, the alliance has appointed several new executive vice presidents from within its ow ranks and a new management committee to be chaired by Ghosn, details about which you can read in the press release below.
Nissan's Ghosn called out by Deltawing's Panoz in print ad
Wed, 25 Jun 2014When the Nissan ZEOD RC limped to the side of the Circuit de la Sarthe a mere five laps into this year's 24 Hours of Le Mans, we imagine that a certain American motorsports figure at least smirked a little. Don Panoz's ongoing feud with Nissan probably means he wasn't sorry to see the arrow-shaped racecar's poor showing, and now he's stepping up his campaign against his former racing partner.
For those who need a refresher, back in 2012, Panoz and Nissan teamed up to field the DeltaWing, an innovative, wedge-shaped racer, as the first entry in the 24 Hours of Le Mans' experimental Garage 56 concept. The car rapidly became a fan favorite. The Panoz/Nissan alliance didn't last, though, and before long, the DeltaWing's designer was getting a paycheck from Nissan and the ZEOD RC racer arrived. Shortly after that, Panoz began mulling over a lawsuit alleging intellectual property infringement. The American motorsports icon would eventually pull the trigger on a suit back in December of 2013.
Panoz's latest move in the ongoing feud involves an open letter in both The Nashville Tennessean, the paper that serves Nissan's US headquarters, and trade paper Automotive News. The letter calls out Renault-Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn directly, and points out some of the similarities between the DeltaWing and the ZEOD RC, going so far as to quote the original car's designer, Ben Bowlby.
